Henkel recently announced the development and commercial availability of LOCTITE® HHD 3544F, a bio-based polyurethane reactive (PUR) hot-melt adhesive designed for consumer electronics assembly.
We have a problem maintaining adhesion to two steel surfaces at divergent temperatures because of the response of materials to thermal conditions when going through heating and cooling cycles.
We are using epoxy adhesives to bond steel substrates that are exposed periodically to both 150˚C and as low as 0˚C. Our problem is in maintaining adhesion to the two steel surfaces at such divergent temperatures because of the response of materials to thermal conditions when going through heating and cooling cycles. Do you have any suggestions?
The electric vehicle space is an area that will provide a tremendous opportunity to converters and others working with high-performance, pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) tapes.
Automakers are investing heavily in electric vehicle (EV) technology and are setting long-term goals for phasing out internal combustion engines. This strategic shift is driven by government policy, long-term competitiveness, and innovations in lithium-ion technology and production that have extended the EV driving range and reduced battery pack costs.
The transformation of the world’s vehicles from internal combustion engines (ICEs) to electric vehicles (EVs) relies in large part on what holds the vehicles together—namely, adhesives.
Called thermoset polyesters, these materials are glass fiber-reinforced unsaturated polyesters. They are also often referred to as “sheet molding compounds” (SMCs), “fiber-reinforced plastics” (FRPs), or simply “fiberglass.”
The primerless adhesive is suitable for a variety of work truck and manufacturing applications that require high-strength adhesion of loads to thin walls or small areas.
